Christian County, Missouri
Here are the first four rows of graves in the Roller Cemetery in Christian County, Missouri. I only have one more row of graves to document and I will be doing that soon. There are still seven more rows of graves that we did not have time to document when we visited on November 1st. We will return, probably in the spring. I hope this is helpful to your research.
